Changes to Supplementary Pensions from Release 4.6A 

Scope of Functions

The contribution statement has been converted to the new ABAP List Viewer. This enables the user to change the list screen individually. The actual functions (evaluation of payroll results according to special selections, calculation of differences to the previous results in the same months) have been moved to a function module (HR_BEITRAGSNACHWEIS). This function module is also used to create the advice notes for the monthly contributions and to form the totals record within the notification records.

The transfer of the contribution to the supplementary pension fund via a data medium sent to the bank was previously only possible if performed indirectly. For a while now, other SI contributions, and also those for the health insurance funds, have been transferred directly from HR. To do this, a preliminary program is used (for the health insurance funds, it is RPCDTSD0). This preliminary program transfers the amounts to an interface together with the recipient and bank details. The data stored there is then formatted for a transfer data medium with report RFFO__U. The new report RPCZVDTAD0 has been created for the supplementary pension funds. It can be started via a pushbutton on the initial screen for transaction PU11. This program first creates an advice note for the amounts to be transferred and this can then be printed if required (the form for the advice note is provided as a model) or it can be formatted with the preliminary program for the RFFOD__U. Direct access to RFFOD__U is also possible.

For a long time now, customers have wanted to be able to delete specific notification runs . From Release 4.5B, this will be available in the standard system for the first time. To restrict the use, however, it is only available via the menu and not via a pushbutton.

The display and export of data medium (TemSe file) for the SPF was previously grouped together with the same functions for other data media in two reports (RPUTSVD0 and RPUTSVDD). This has now been moved to a new report (RPUZVTD0) which contains a direct link to the printing functions for correspondence. The user can now also choose between downloading to a local PC or to a server.

Report RPHZV_VERSAND now includes the functions for printing dispatch papers (delivery note and label) for the data medium. You can check and, if necessary, modify the sender, the recipient, and the notification data, before you forward the SAPScript forms for printing (a model is provided). When the export has taken place, you are automatically taken to the printing function for the dispatch papers. This function can also be called from the menu. Important: Most fields are filled when the SP fund is selected, provided the tables T5D1H and T536A are maintained correctly (see also the point on Customizing below).

To be able to use the selections for the last program run again, you no longer need to create a variant. This is now automatic. In this way, you can transfer data between the selection screens for different reports and avoid multiple entry.

Effects on Customizing

To ensure that the transfer is correct, table T5D1H must contain the bank data and addresses for the SI funds as well as for the supplementary pension funds. "O" must be entered as the SI column. To print the dispatch papers and for the correct preliminary record on the data medium, table T536A must be maintained with the address data for the customer. The keys for both tables must be stored in T5D5Z in the "Transfer key" and "Address of sender" fields. For more information, see the F1 documentation for the fields.
